Rav Avigdor Miller was
without a doubt a superior expert in Chinuch and many other issues for the american millieu 1960s and 1970s than Rav Chaim Kanievsky Shlita and for that matter Rav Moshe zt’l
And they would be/have been the first to tell you that!
[ Whether what he said then is applicable for those here now, might be and could be a very different story.Even back then, two of my female relatives felt what he said in their seminaries was was less than beneficial for them in their particular circumstances]
We are going into tenuous territory when the discussion becomes who is a gadol (and who isn’t)
Who decides?
When the Agudah came to R’ Avigdor Miller to
requesting for him to come the 1997 Siyum Hashas ,his response was so him “I have a big Court Case coming up[i.e after his demise],I don’t have time for Parties”
Had he been sitting there in front of the Siyum Hashas , would the readers here give him a greater aura?
Had he been on the Moetzes ,would the readers here give him a greater aura?
Was he kept off as some contend,because some who had/have disproportionate influence had some fear of his straight unimpeachable unequivocal philosophy
e.g.as they indeed kept Rav Schwab at some distance also?
